HOLOCAUST AND GENOCIDE PC BIBLIOGRAPHIC DATABASE
AVAILABLE FROM THE INSTITUTE ON THE HOLOCAUST AND GENOCIDE
IN JERUSALEM
The Institute on the Holocaust and Genocide in Jerusalem is pleased
to announce the forthcoming availability of the HOLOCAUST AND
GENOCIDE COMPUTERIZED BIBLIOGRAPHIC DATABASE, Version 2.2, edited by
MARC I. SHERMAN AND ISRAEL W. CHARNY. This database has been
compiled on an IBM-compatable PC using Procite, one of the most
widely acclaimed bibliographic database managers on personal
computers.
The database, which has been largely funded by the U.S. Institute
of Peace, Washington, D.C. (a federal agency), assembles literature
especially from 1980 onwards, the period which has seen the most
significant steps forward in the emerging field of study of genocide
as well as a limited number of citations from earlier years. The
database has been compiled from a multitude of international sources
including the institute's own published bibliographies (Genocide: A
Critical Bibliographic Review, Charny, I.W. [Ed], Volume 1, 1988
and Volumne 2, 1992), an invited panel of distinguished scholars,
and various online databases.
The fields covered in this interdisciplinary database include
religion, psychology, sociology, law, medicine, history, economics,
political science, anthropology, education, and philosophy. The
database contains some 9000 unique bibliographic citations of books,
chapters of books, book reviews, journal articles, and
dissertations, most with abstracts, and a unique controlled index
word scheme developed specifically for this database.
This first-of-a-kind database is without doubt the most
comprehensive source of literature in this rapidly evolving area of
research and will be an invaluable source for scholars accessing
information on this crucial field. This database will be available
on diskettes to research institutions, libraries and scholars. The
availability on Procite, with its advanced searching and formatting
capabilities, will further enhance research.
For more information on subscriptions to the database, write Marc I.
